World-Information City Paris 2009 is an international, two day conference focusing on four major themes within the wide field of new urban
geographies: mobility, global flows and local dynamics, the remaking of urban spaces through new strategies of conflict and security, and new approaches to map distributed action in space. Mobility – of people, goods, and information – across distances large and small has become an ever more salient aspect of a wide range of social practices.

World-Information City is a one-week programme of events addressing
global issues of intellectual property and technology in conjunction
with changing urban landscapes. Held at India's IT metropolis Bangalore, World-Information City is a
cooperative project of the Institute of New Culture Technologies/t0
(Vienna), Sarai CSDS (Delhi), Waag Society (Amsterdam), ALF (Bangalore), Mahiti (Bangalore) and local partners. The programme brings together researchers, artists and activists from
Europe and South Asia. It consists of a conference, workshops, an
exhibition, a public campaign, and a series of musical and art
events based on electronic media.

World-Information.Org's program includes public events, such as exhibitions and conferences that enable a practical experience of new art forms and novel modes of cultural communication and participation. Supplementing the variety of events World-Information.Org maintains a web site, which features a series of innovative online tools for researchers and the interested public and includes an extensive knowledge base, a link database and a high-profile newsroom. World-Information.Org is also committed to support the cultural heritage of the future and provides the infrastructure and Infostructure for a multitude of artistic projects.
